Stiffed on tip, pizza guy urinates on woman’s door

Every weekday, PR Daily associate editor Alan Pearcy highlights the day’s most compelling stories and amusing marginalia on the Web in this, #TheDailySpin.

So that’s where the FedEx delivery guy ended up. Kidding. Although judging by this security footage, it would appear that the man behind one of last holiday season’s biggest PR mishaps has met a worthy adversary. After not receiving a tip, a delivery guy for an Iowa Pizza Hut peed on the door of one rather unlucky customer. Unlucky for the Pizza Hut employee, the whole incident was caught on surveillance. Despite returning to the soiled scene to clean up the mess, the deliveryman was fired.

The incident in Iowa brings up an important question: Is it ever OK not to tip? Reddit users recently discussed the notion in a heated exchange on the site after a photo was shared of an alleged “single mom” who left her server zilch on a $138 bill. At least she said, “Sorry.”

As for Diane Sawyer, Twitter users alleged the news anchor was drunk during ABC’s evening coverage of the election. BuzzFeed pulled together a collection of 17 tweets about the reporter’s unusual demeanor, and Gawker spliced together this video to help justify viewers’ thoughts on the matter.

The marketing efforts of Apple are often praised, but the tech company has had its fair share of fails, too. From its faux wood iBooks bookcase to the imitation leather banner on iCalendars, Mashable highlights the tech giant’s Skeumorphism Hall of Shame, a “skeumorph” being “an ornament or design representing a utensil or implement.”
